Football: The Strongest Hexagon Warrior

"aoaoaooaooooooo——"

Deafening roars rang out in Tallinn and Rieckla stadiums in Estonia.

Arsenal fans, local fans and neutral fans all unleashed their passion at this time and celebrated Arsenal's fantastic two-goal lead.

Liverpool fans sighed repeatedly, obviously losing confidence in the game.

The Liverpool players on the field were almost the same and looked at each other.

The Red Arrows didn't even touch the ball, and the score was already two goals behind.

How to play such a game?

Goalkeeper Alisson pursed his lips and put his hands on his hips, shaking his head and sighing. Looking at the Arsenal players celebrating the goal, his eyes lost the strong desire to win before the game.

The same goes for other Liverpool players, each of whom seemed to have guessed the final outcome.

The game restarted. Although Liverpool, which was trailing by two goals in the first five minutes, gained a kick-off advantage, they did not show a strong desire to win. Passing and receiving felt like passing for the sake of passing.

At this moment, the Liverpool fans in the audience played a crucial role, singing "You'll Never Walk Alone".

The Liverpool players on the field were like people who were lost in the dark and saw the light, and each of them had a goal.

Fight for the fans!

Football matches are not only about winning for yourself, but also about fighting for the fans in the audience who spare no effort to cheer.

The game had only started less than ten minutes, and there was still enough time to equalize the score.

After the Red Arrows' running-in last season, their overall coordination ability has increased significantly. Liverpool players who have gradually regained their fighting spirit have consciously increased their running coverage.

Firmino assisted, and Mane and Salah created opportunities on both sides.

Especially Salah on the right, who first got ample training in Fiorentina and Roma, and then shined under the coaching of Klopp last season, becoming the Premier League silver boot, second only to Martin, who scores many goals.

He is very threatening when taking the ball in the right rib of the attack, and can even threaten goalkeeper Petr Cech to guard the goal.

Martin quickly made fine adjustments to his command of the defense. His accurate predictions caused Liverpool, which was gaining momentum, to encounter great resistance on the offensive end.

Van Dijk's one-on-one defense and overall assisting defense capabilities are also getting better and better. Many Arsenal fans in the audience and in front of the TV know football, so they feel relieved.

Arteta, who was standing in the coach's technical area on the left side of the broadcast screen, was a little ashamed, but he soon realized that luck is also a manifestation of ability. With the recommendation of his mentor Wenger, it was logical to take up the position of Arsenal head coach.

Besides, when Wenger retires, someone has to take over, right?

Anyone can accept it, so why not give it to your own people?

right?

After thinking about this clearly, Arteta looked at the game in a better mood.

The team was leading by two goals, and Liverpool's offense was not threatening. He knew that winning the game was a sure thing.

As Martin joined Arsenal's defensive system, Liverpool's offense gradually became a little constipated, and there was no shot that could threaten Cech's goal.

Arsenal, who were leading the score, did not force an attack to further expand the score. Instead, they consumed the game time through reasonable passes, and also consumed the physical fitness and patience of the Liverpool players, working hard for goals that were produced gradually.

Time passes quickly in a high-level competition, and it’s half an hour in the blink of an eye.

The score shown on the scoreboard is still UEFA Champions League champion Arsenal leading UEFA Champions League Liverpool 1:0.

In terms of ball control, shots, and hits, Arsenal led by Martin is higher, but Liverpool, which is two goals behind, is still high-spirited and will not give up until they tie the score.

Klopp has great ambitions for the new season.

The Red Arrows' offensive system has taken shape and their defensive system is relatively stable. They believe they are fully capable of challenging the European hegemon Arsenal in the new season.

This game is a touchstone for Klopp.

Except for the two goals conceded at the beginning, he believes that they are not much weaker than Arsenal in terms of technical and tactical aspects and player strength, which means that they can become the most powerful contender for championships in various competitions in the new 2018-2019 season... …

one!

It wasn't until the 36th minute of the game that Klopp was brought back to reality by Martin's goal.

In the fanatical atmosphere of the scene, Martin once again picked up the ball in the middle of the court and suddenly accelerated. He used his superb foot skills to pass Naby Keita, Henderson, Matip and Joe Gomez, and faced Alli's attack. Sen kicked the ball close to the ground, and the football that was close to the ground could not reach the crotch of Alisson, who had his legs closed, and passed under the goal line, hitting the snow-white net...

"Goooooooooooooal——"

The commentators in the live commentary box and the Riela Stadium were affected by the fanatical atmosphere, and they all made impassioned and elongated voices.

Martin did not celebrate the goal. He hugged his teammates as usual and celebrated the three-goal lead.

The Liverpool players, who were still high-spirited before losing the ball, instantly looked like eggplants beaten by frost.

This goal also means that the overall situation of this game has been decided.

Although Liverpool's ancestors once had the glory of pulling back three goals in nine minutes from three goals down, their opponent Arsenal is not a team that takes a big lead lightly. On the contrary, it is a team that is very good at taking advantage. Converts into goals for the team.

Therefore, Martin's goal directly knocked out the spirit of the high-spirited Liverpool players.

"damn it."

Klopp was very unhappy when he saw the obvious changes in the mental outlook of the players on the field.

He was not a head coach who gave up easily. There was still halftime, so he thought he might be able to save something.

Arsenal, with a three-goal lead, still maintained a high level of concentration on the game and were also looking for opportunities to see if they could kill the game.

Considering that the opponent is Liverpool, who is good at comebacks, the bigger the gap, the better and safer it is.

Martin, who was leading the attack, just wanted to give Liverpool some face, so there was no most deadly attack.

After all, the Liverpool players on the field did not show a strong desire to attack and seemed more like coping.

Until the end of the first half, the scoreboard still showed Arsenal leading Liverpool 3:0.

After a fifteen-minute intermission, players from both sides returned to the court one after another to prepare for the forty-five minutes of the second half.

Before the change of sides, Liverpool took the lead in making personnel adjustments.

Veteran Milner replaced Naby Keita, who performed poorly in the first half.

Arsenal remained on hold.

At the beginning of the second half, Liverpool did take advantage of the kick-off to launch two effective attacks, but they did not directly threaten Cech's goal.

On the other hand, Arsenal's counterattack was impressive.

If it weren't for Milner and Matip's timely fouls, as well as Alisson's brave performance, we would have been at least four goals behind.

Feeling the huge pressure from conceding the ball, Liverpool's defensive players chose to protect themselves wisely, not seeking merit but seeking no fault.

As a result, players on the offensive end cannot receive effective support, and the threat to Cech guarding the goal is greatly reduced.
